More Spooner Action

After a very wet start, the BBC forecast was right for a change, (put that Bladder Wrack away girl, there's no need!) dry by ten. Called in at DP on the way home from a nice walk between Seahouses and Belford (God, I hate my job). The spooners were still there, with yet more interaction, I am convinced these two are related, check out these pics!






























A bit of change on the waders scene, 3 juv ruff, 1 juv spotshank and a black-tailed godwit...oh and a handful of snipe. Offshore there was a very smart drake velvet scoter, the first one i've seen in donks.





Is That me?
